.@alanthomasdoyle Alan Doyle - January 22 at 8pm! Tickets are $55.00. Member discounts in effect. Alan Doyle, lead singer of Great Big Sea, is coming to Lindsays Academy Theatre, January 22, 2015. Alan left home as a teenager and moved to Newfoundlands capital, St. Johns, where he honed his performing skills as a solo artist in the citys pubs, standing on miniscule stages, belting out folk songs and the classic rock for the rowdy patrons. In 1993, he joined forces with fellow pub warriors Sean McCann, Bob Hallett, and Darrell Power; and together they started Great Big Sea, in which they fused traditional Newfoundland music with their own pop sensibilities. 19 years later, the band continues to astonish crowds around the world with their energy, musical skill and an ingrained inability to take themselves too seriously. A national musical treasure for a generation, their nine albums and two DVD releases have been declared Gold or Platinum and have sold a combined 1.2 million copies in Canada. When not occupied with GBS duties, Alan Doyle is much in demand as a producer, arranger and general musical catalyst, having produced albums for actor Russell Crowe and Juno Award winners The Irish Descendants, among others. He has also furnished soundtracks for the movie Young Triffies Been Made Away With, the television series Hatching, Matching & Dispatching, and for a best-selling Nintendo DS video game. With the release of Boy On Bridge, Alan adds another dimension to his career: that of a solo artist. https://youtube/watch?v=hGC0o0zOcNs
